how to record weather and climate, audio
DOCX, 343.55 KB A record sheet for children to record different aspects of the weather during the school week. Includes an example day to give the children an idea on how to fill it in. The fully editable document includes spaces for temperature, wind speed and direction, cloud cover, precipitation and other types of weather. They could measure local weather conditions or find the information from a weather forecast or a mixture of the two. I selected different children to record the weather on different days. As a follow up activity, the data can then be graphed and analysed and compared to the climate records.
The statements, "Its rainy today." and "It's always rainy in July." emanate from two different concepts. The first refers to the current atmospheric conditions on a particular day. The second indicates an expectation of the weather conditions based on a norm. It is often said that climate is what you expect and weather is what you get! A more geographic explanation is weather is the current condition of the atmosphere over a few days to a few months. This includes factors such as rainfall and temperature. Climate is the average weather conditions of a place over a period of at least 30 years. Weather Climate
